Using Gandi AI
When you create a Gandi Virtual Private Server (VPS), you can select one of two modes: AI (automated install) or expert mode.
Gandi AI allows you to install and manage your server packages using a graphical interface.
You can always switch to expert mode later (but not vice versa).
The documentation below will help you manage your AI VPS.
